Mistakes of Youth: The Blog (Powered by EXCELLENCE!)

Podcasts, a comic and further photos to follow (I really didn’t take many though. Seriously, no more than 10, tops.) For now, the loots. If for some reason porn offends you, don’t read further!

(more…)

I AM DOWNLOADING RENKIN 3-KYUU MAGICAL? POKAAN. ARE YOU HAPPY ABOUT THIS? ARE YOU? All the borderline loli porn you posted pushed me over the edge, and I just had to see this goddamn thing.

By the way… Lastarial is a smashing fellow. He runs a blog about railways, music and occasinally writes about animu. Check it out, will ya!

Well, apartment, but you know. I posted some pictures back when I first moved in, but I figured I’d post some now that it’s more, uh, “lived in.” Also I wish to do battle with Os. Room battle. Please read this post while listening to my theme song.

Pics after the jump. 56k no. NSFW.

MY MOTHERFUCKING SHOWER IS BROKE

that is all :(

edit: seems them frozen pipes have thawed. for now.

I’m “Live A Live” by the way. I change my display name on MSN almost daily because I’m insane.

Happy New Year you crazies.

I enjoy abq’s approach to the new year. Though, I do have one resolution. One I won’t keep, at all. What is it? To make more comics. A laugh, right? Hahaha.

Oh, and here’s something I’m planning on doing starting this year: post my monthly anime viewing. Yes, so exciting right? It’s just copied and pasted from here, so it’s pretty pointless. Oh well, here’s January.

Fansubs/Raw
Ayakashi Ayashi: Developing into something interesting, but slow subs kill any tension or interest.
Code Geass: After a short break in the action, the show is picking up the pace again. Really liking this one. Also, CC.
Death Note: It does nail certain scenes well, but knowing the story in advance makes watching this less entertaining because the suspense is lost. I do love the look though.
First Gundam: Haha, Sleggar Law. And ZOMG Lalah appears : o
Jigoku Shoujo Futagomori: Haven’t seen it in a while : (
Kanon: Yay Mai’s arc! This is probably one of my favorite arcs, and KyoAni is handling it well. Really liked the dance scene and battle that followed. And the anteater. Though it looks like the animation is going down hill next episode again. Oh well.
Negima?!: Just watching it for Shinbo and his wacky directing. And all the girls : D
Pumpkin Scissors: Oh look something is happening. The loli-princess made it good. Brought the show out of D- land to the world of “A+++ would do business with again”.

Rewatching
Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu: Generally enjoying it more because I understand most of what’s going on when they talk about “closed space” and all that. And catching all that stuff knowing the series in advance is fun. And Mikuru.

DVD
Cardcaptor Sakura: A fun diversion. While not the ZOMG GREATEST SERIES EVAR MADE it’s a fun show to just sit down and watch. I’m about 5 discs in.
Tsukuyomi: I guess I’ll be keeping up with the DVD release. Never watched it on the wacky fansubs, and I’m not a dirty pirate who downloads what I can buy. I’m liking it pretty good, even if the plot is unfolding at a snail’s pace. Shinbo directing and Hazuki make it all wonderful. Mmm, Hazuki.

Finished
Black Lagoon 2: Wow, that was intense. Third season please? At least when there’s enough manga to pump out another 12 episodes.
Chocotto Sister: I loved this show soooo much. Need to get past volume 1 on the DVDs. A Christmas special was such a great way to end it : D
Lovedol: Hahahhahaha. At least it wasn’t a waste of time. Like Soul Link.
NHK ni Youkoso: Wow Gonzo didn’t fuck up too much! I thought it ended pretty well. Still wish the animation was as good as episodes 1 and 24 throughout. Oh well. Maybe the manga will end soon. Hopefully.
Zegapain: I don’t even know anymore.

I guess I’ll make another post once all the new shows start, or something.

I ask for a lot because I’m spoiled. Oh it feels so good being upper-class…

• It’s spelled integrated, not intergrated.
• 2D Design is an utterly stupid class.
• Foundation Drawing I is less stupid.
• Anything in English can be related to trashy American pop-culture.
• The history of computers is much like Speed Grapher. The first half is terrible, but the second half is awesome. Except the history of computers isn’t animated horribly.
• “Presentation Skills” is a fucking easy A.
• Most art students suck at life. And smoke a lot.

I swear, that’s it for personal bullshit. I just needed to get this off my chest, as it stinks. Expect more anime-centric entries in the future! I may even do a review of the first PPD disc, a whole month after everyone else has. All I can say now is that it is good.

I passed Foundation Drawing 1 with flying colors, even if those colors are a bit grey. 2D Design is the one I’m most worried about. I got a B- or something on my midterm, and I’m hoping to at least get a B on the final (you need a B to get into the art program.) I think I should at least get a B. I mean, it’s not as if my work has gotten worse. Or has it? It’s impossible to tell!

I should be writing an English essay right now, but I’m getting distracted. I think I’ll throw together four pages on how “language defines an individual” tonight, and then study the history of computers for a good amount of time tomorrow.

god lupin III has such great music

I’m taking off for a bit. Going home for the Thanksgiving holiday. I’m bringing my laptop, so with luck I’ll complete a comic while I’m there. I’m not excited about flying there, though… scared of flying.

Anyway, I’m leaving you clowns with some cool things I found while traversing the webernet this morning.

Epic trailer for the Gunbuster vs Diebuster movie. Seriously, totally epic.

Trailer for Makoto Shinkai’s new work, Byousoku 5 Centimeter. Absolutely beautiful work. There’s a HD trailer on the official site, so if your machine’s up for the task, download it quick! It’s only up for a week.

And lastly, this hot wallpaper I found on danbooru. Don’t worry, it’s work safe.

So yeah, sayonara~

EDIT: I just found this, even though it was posted like… 10 days ago. But, wow, Misato never looked so hot. I’m going crazy.
